Cannot Move/Copy folders
I have 2 folders in the default "Videos" folder on ReadyNas, one for iMovie Events, in which video clips are stored, and one for iMovie Projects in which the completed videos are stored. Running most...
Ok, I would like to just bring this up again to see if there may be any other suggestions.
I tried the new beta 4.1.10 T3 and still had the same issues copying files. I reinstalled 4.1.8 and had same issue. I am doing this over AFP. Quick recap: I was having trouble with file access earlier this year with TIme Machine. Fixing this required a reset to factory of the NAS, and then updated the firmware to 4.1.9 and then put my files back on from a backup.
Specifically I have 2 folders, one for raw video files, the other for completed movies. When I try to copy new events into either, a circle with a line through it comes up and it won't let me put files in there. When I try to move the files OUT of these folders, a box comes up saying Finder wants permission and asks for username and password to continue. The user name is filled out and is the name of my Mac. It seems to accept my Mac password but the files don't copy. It will not accept the Readynas "admin" and Password. So I basically can't copy into or out of my old folders, seemingly in either 4.1.8, 4.1.9, or 4.1.10 T3.
I would like to keep my files organized and not scattered all over. Can this issue be fixed? Is this related to the reset I had to do, or that these files came from my backup? Any other things I can try?
Thanks for any help
